What is the interaction between willbooster and jailkeeper? The jailkeeper's protection is not cancelled, correct?

yeah i don't think the scum need all the roles they have

the bulletproof strikes me as especially unnecessary

how are you resolving two roleblockers blocking each other or etc

especially relevant with a weak rb in play

potential issue: if the tracker claims immediately and the JK and willbooster target him, the mafia can't do much except cry

i guess that's why they have a neapolitan? maybe that's fine just thought it should be pointed out

the neapolitan role PM specifies a no result option but the tracker role PM doesn't

having the booster stop only one RB is a decent step, though the scum are still forced to play wifom games with the JK (should we block or kill the tracker? only one will work, which is it? should they throw both at him and risk losing the kill?)

all it takes is the tracker claiming (which, again, we shouldn't be incentivizing him to do)

i think the balance might be ok as well

swingy, as stated, but not super bad.

i'm still a little peeved that a d1 tracker claim would be good for town
